Create Your Own Label 2015: General Thread

The rules of the draft are pretty simple it goes from low to high in the first portion (lowest points goes first), then in the second part the people with the highest points go first and the lowest last. Each player must wait for the other player to select their artists before they can advance, no player can be skipped. A player has a 48 hour window to pick their artist or they will be skipped or placed at the end of the draft.

- If more than one player has equal points to another, the player who hasn't had a previous update in points first will go ahead.

- No player can pick the same artist once they've already been selected, even if they pick up a group the artist is in (for example, if someone asked for Destiny's Child but they don't own Beyoncé, they would only get Kelly Rowland and Michelle).

- Selecting a group counts as 1 slot - it must be understood that if you collect many artists, the onus is on the player to make album covers for their roster so having too much might make it difficult.

- you can select any artist you want from any genre as long as another player hasn't already chosen them and as long as the individual raps, sings, produces or has in the past. A player cannot pick an artist who is dead. NO TROLLING ALLOWED.

- If a player has extra money left over, the amount gets rounded to the nearest ten. Once more, if you have a lot of artists the onus is on you to manage your label and album covers. In the second portion of the draft each player can buy any artist that is still available for $10 mil each.

- A player can quit the draft at any time if they ask to

After the drafts the players will have 2 weeks to compose their album covers and tracklists. They can always add new ones afterwards during the tournament. They will have to PM you their album covers/tracklists to be posted for their match ups. A player can post as many album covers as they can manage.

This is the folly of the internet. Its become a bastion of misinformation, rumors, conspiracies and propaganda. A place where a person with no face or name can make accusations at any time with no verification or credentials and brainwash a small segment of people.

This is the order we will go tonight according to points. Also Sion corrected me and told me that each player gets 5 free artists and then you spend down on your totals with each artist being $10 mill a piece
